• Driver_irql_not_less_or_equal blue screen Vista and can not restart

  My PC Win Vista (not sure if 32 bit or 64) continues to display blue screen. Today, he continues to display blue screen when starting, and I can not even accept F8.

  Here's what it shows the blue screen before. Hope you could give me some advice what I can do next. Thank you!
  
  A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent

  damage to your computer.

  DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL

  If this is the first time you have seen this Stop error screen, restart

  your computer. If this screen appears again, follow these steps:

  Check to make sure any new hardware or software is installed correctly.

  If this is a new installation, ask your hardware manufacturer or software

  the windows updates, you might need.

  If problems continue, disable or remove any newly installed or

  software. Disable the BIOS memory options such as implementing caching or shading.

  If you need to use Safe Mode to remove or disable components, restart your

  computer, press F8 to select advanced startup options, and then select

  Safe mode.

  Hello

  nvstor.sys is a Nvidia video driver.

  Think video drivers especially if it may be others. Refer to the section of driver in my generic bluescreen
  methods of troubleshooting below. BIOS, low and antispyway/antivirus/security chipset drivers
  programs may also cause this. Check the resolution of problems and when you get to the section driver view
  for generic methods in the next message and then back to the if necessary troubleshooting tool.

  Look in the Event Viewer to see if something is reported on.

  -------------------------------------------------------------------------

  My troubleshootter of bluescreen generic, when you get to the section driver go to the next message, then
  return to this one.

  Here are a few ways to possibly fix the blue screen issue. If you could give the info from the blue screen that would be
  Help. Such as ITC and 4 others entered at the bottom left. And any other information such as STOP error
  codes and info like IRQL_NOT_LESS_OR_EQUAL or PAGE_FAULT_IN_NONPAGED_AREA and similar messages.

  As examples:

  BCP1: 87BC9510

• Upgrade to Firefox 25.0 today. Now I can not restart (hangs or blue screen; Win 7) but it starts in Mode safe mode OK and it starts in mode NML if Ive not running Ffx

  Upgrade to Firefox 25.0 today. Now I can't restart the computer (it crashes or goes to the blue screen; Win 7) but it starts in Mode safe mode OK and it starts in normal mode if I don't run Firefox since I finally started. This suggests that Firefox 25.0 installation done something for her. How can I proceed? Thank you, Jim.

  Hello

  Some Firefox problems can be solved by performing a clean reinstall. This means that you remove Firefox program files, and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:

  Note: You can print these steps or consult them in another browser.

  1. Download the latest version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org office and save the installer to your computer.
  2. Once the download is complete, close all Firefox Windows (click on quit in the file menu or Firefox).
  3. Remove the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
     • Windows:
       • C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
       • C:\Program Files (x 86) \Mozilla Firefox
     • Mac: Delete Firefox in the Applications folder.
     • Linux: If you have installed Firefox with the distribution-based package manager, you must use the same way to uninstall: see Install Firefox on Linux. If you have downloaded and installed the binary package from the Firefox download page, simply remove the folder firefox in your home directory.
  4. Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
     1. Double-click on the downloaded Setup file and go through the steps in the installation wizard.
     2. Once the wizard is completed, click to open Firefox directly after clicking the Finish button.

  Please report back to see if this helped you!

  Thank you.

• Blue screen on HP on HP all-in - One PC Vision

  Hello. For the last week or so my PC all-in-One was bat with a blue screen every time that comes out of hibernation. It seems not serious if it went into hibernate on its own, or through start-> sleep action. The blue screen usually indicates a page KERNEL_DATA_INPAGE_ERROR error.

  I restored my system to attempt to repair. He did, for a while, but today it started again.

  A few web searches made me suspect that it is a manifestation of problems with the fix for Microsoft KB2670838. Other users have reported blue screens after installing (usually as a sine qua non for IE 10), although I have not seem to reports of what happens after a sleep, as it is for me.

  Others hit this kind of problem? Suggestions on solving?

  I intend to uninstall this hotfix, see if it helps. I'll report.

  The number of my all-in-one PC product is

  HP Vision 120-1026

  (Sorry, I wanted to include it).

  I ran the diagnostics twice, but no problems were found with the S.M.A.R.T. tests or anything else; all the past. In addition, the hard drive is not that big by today's standards, just 685GB (not 1 TB or more as suggested the fix).

  I have some good news, however. During the uninstall of the KB2670838 bug fix only made no apparent difference, I managed to solve the problem by using the system restore to restore my system to the first point of restoration, this day here. Thus, it seems that it is triggered by a Microsoft Update, but not pain causes one on other systems.

  I configured my system for manual updates now and will see if I can identify the culprit was updated.

  ·        How many GB of RAM is installed on the computer?

  ·        RAM stick is how much is on the computer?

  ·        What computer brand and model number?

  If you have several sticks of RAM installed on the computer, you can try to delete one of the RAM stick and check if you can boot to the desktop. Also, you try to exchange the RAM sticks and check if one of the RAM is originally this issue and if it needs to be replaced.

  Note: If you are not aware of the evolution and swaping the stick of RAM on the computer, it is best to contact the computer manufacturer for help on this and you can do it at your own risk.

  You can also contact the computer manufacturer and check if all parameters in the BIOS has changed and if you reset the BIOS to default and start-up of the desktop settings.

  NOTE: Changing the BIOS / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from configuration can resolved BIOS/CMOS settings. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

• Blue screen of death

  I have an old iMac 24 "which I intend to sell. I decided it would be better to erase the entire disc (which I did) and then I read that I should also erase the HD recovery disk in case personal data are still there (passwords, etc.). So I deleted that too. However, after clearing I is more had the option to install Lion except via Internet needed my Apple ID, etc, so after several hours of searching for solutions I 'dropped' and find my original Snow Leopard disc to do a fresh install. It seems to proceed correctly and I completed the user info, name the HD, password I left blank (I think or I can put a-if so I know what it is that I always use) however I have then I faced the blue screen.

  I tried in safe mode, but it does not recognize my password either vacuum or that we could (I tried a wired keyboard just in case). I tried to use various methods to reset the password using the single-user mode (keep in mind, I'm a complete novice). That is to say. Mount - uw / etc.

  So I can basically on-screen mode safe but not spent in the system or I can access Cmd S and that's all. I can't go beyond either for the fire.

  I wonder if by removing the HD recovery I'm stuck now? I tried to reinstall Snow leopard twice (which takes 45 minutes each time), but I'm always dealing with the blue screen.

  I wonder if something is wrong with the boot files? I only scratch around now.

• Blue Screen of Death... Urgent!

  Hey all. It's a little urgent, so any help is appreciated. So the story:

  It all started last Saturday in the fourth. I plugged my 5s 32 GB iPhone in car charger and it blue screened, what frightens me. I quickly unplugged and and soft restarted as soon as I saw him, and everything was fine.

  Since then, so three days later, I had to restart about 50 + times. So today I got sick of this blue screen, and I decided that I would try to fix it. I looked around solutions, and many say that it happens shortly after a solution when you remove the screen, but I've had my phone for four months and have never had to remove from the screen.

  The next solution was to restore factory default, so I decided to try it, after that I backed up in iTunes which is

  Finally, I was getting it restored, when all of a sudden, BAM. projected again blue.

  Since then, happened across this restore Middle blue screen of death, and it's practically a piece of metal shit now. I can't do anything. I can't force the restart it you a blue screen. Can someone give me advice? I have some upcoming vacation and need my phone. Can anyone help?

  Try recovery Mode

  Connect your device to your computer and open iTunes.

  When your device is connected, force restart it: press and hold the sleep/wake and home for at least 10 seconds, and only release when you see the Apple logo.

  Keep now until see you the recovery mode screen and wait that he eat.

  You may need to do the above, more than once as recovery mode is difficult to enter.

• Satellite A500 - crackling sounds and blue screen

  Hey everybody.

  I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite A500-19w about 4 days ago (today it is Sunday, March 7, 2010).

  I had the sounds of crackling of my speakers which have been mentioned so many times in the forums, no real solution.
  I also experienced the crash of the blue screen, that's already happened 7 times while I was not strongly using my newly buy laptop.
  I'm not looking for a repair or a replacement, because I find it quite unacceptable to have to think about the errors, faults & fixes as much as the laptop is brand new.

  What I want is a refund, but I'm not sure on how to do it.

  I know that Toshiba has some sort of refund policy, but if someone can tell me exactly how it works, because I want to get rid of my laptop as soon as possible (I will not buy any more portable Toshiba, especially since I had some similar problems with my Qosmio f30).
  If someone can give me some guidance, because I don't want to be mocked or used and cheated out of refund.
  I bought my Toshiba in the Middle East (perhaps refund policies are different here).
  Thank you.

  Hi mihran.

  If you want to pay off your laptop, you should talk with your computer store where you bought it. Only the can repay your laptop and not Toshiba directly.
  Of course it is also depending on the country where you life, but normally you can pay within 14 days I think. So in your case I speak with the seller or give them a call. They explain how to do this.

  But let me give you a little advice: regarding your problems with the crackling sound and blue screen I recommend that you contact an authorized service provider or ask a new A500 (this should be possible if you have only 4 days). Generally, I can say that a friend of mine has Satellite A500 and he is quite satisfied with her. This laptop has a great design equipped with new material for a good price. :)
